Table 1.
Chromosome relative length (RL), centromeric index (CI) and chromosome shape (CS) of studied samples of Anguis veronensis. The values of RL and CI are expressed as mean ± standard deviation. Chromosome morphology was measured according to Levan et al. (1964). For the microchromosomes 11–22 only their complessive RL value is provided.
